Nessicle Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 I can read on a bus but not in the car although if the bus is winding down rounds it does make me feel a bit sick lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leah86 Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 I'm a really bad traveller i general. There's no way I would be able to read on a bus,boat or in a car,I get way too nauseous. Funnily enough I'm absolutely fine on a plane,I can read to my hearts content. Seven hour flight to New York was pure bliss! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanC_84 Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 Personally I cannot read when moving full stop. It is incredibly frustrating as I work in the City and spend at least an hour a day on the bus, so I could get plenty of reading done. I have tried I just cannot do it. After 2 or 3 minutes I have a horrible head ache and feel like I am going to throw up. The plane is not so bad with the exception of landings and take-offs.

Inver Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 It makes me ill but I would do it if it didn't. How can you play your DS then when you are in the car?? Can't really read in the car and even reading maps isn't a bit:irked: Trains, buses and planes etc OK though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pipread Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 I can`t read when travelling by road, if I try to, I very soon feel sick and have a pounding headache. I have to travel with the windows open and look into the distance, then I`m fine. It`s a waste of precious reading time though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weave Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 I am quite lucky, I can read anywhere, I just switch off, I can also sleep standing up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cadenza Posted February 23, 2009 Author Share Posted February 23, 2009 II can also sleep standing up I have to say i've never tried! Interesting idea though ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kylie Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 Those bands didn't work on me either - they just dug into my wrists and hurt me eventually! The bands work for me. I used to take medicine, which would knock me out in about 10 minutes and I would sleep for hours. Then I tried the bands and they work just as well only they didn't make me sleepy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitegold Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 I never feel sick reading in the car. I love it, it makes the travel time go by much faster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bethany725 Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 I love reading during any mode of travel! I'm blessed with some ability to avoid motion sickness completely, so I love to read on subways, cars, planes, trains, etc.. It passes the time so quickly!

frankie Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 Sorry for off-topicing but whenever I see this thread, Roxette's Sleeping in My Car starts playing in my head and it's getting quite annoying On topic. I usually never get to sit in a car anymore nowadays so I haven't been able to test whether I'll get sick from reading in one, but I'm betting that I would However, lately I've been able to read while I'm in a bus which is a huge improvement.
